Looks like America's "Intellectual Property" laws extend beyond its borders. The US has convinced Australia to extradite a member of the warez group DrinkOrDie. He had never been to America, but now he faces up to 10 years in prison as he awaits his fate in a Virginia cell.
This represents an extraordinary extension of the US' legal authority over other countries, especially when it comes to protection of "Intellectual Property." This man should be tried in Australian courts (if not lauded as a hero). Unfortunately Team America, World Police, does not see it that way.
